GOULBURN CHRONICAL 'j SATURDAY, MARCH 31, 1860. SYDNEY. (FROM OU SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT) Thursday evening. THINGS are a little more quiet in Sydney than they were during the past week. Even a commercial sensation, like all other &amp;nbsp; inents, dies out of ita own force; and other topics are beginning to be introduced when men meet, besides reputed pecuniary diffi culties. I am inclined to think the worst is past-for it season, at all events. But, let whatever efforts may be made to disguise it, there is a large amount of unsoundness in the community. Some few houses are to far gone for their creditors to consent to their being declared insolvent-their liabilities too largely involve others, and there is no help for it but to keep them up. In some of these cafes, with a fortunate turn of affairs, the parties may recover themselves, but the chances are against them. The enormous proportion of the Bank discounts which is known not to represent property, is a sufficiently palpabl...

LATEST FROM SYDNEY. [BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.] (FROM OUR CITY CORRESPONDENT.) Friday evening. RESPECTING the Native disturbances in the Province of Taranuki, New Zealand, we have news to 10th March. Up to that time there has been no fighting. Troops had marched and taken possession of the disputed ground and also destroyed two publs. Wiremu Kingi (William King, the insurgent chief) was still at large, and there were fears of the Taranaki natives joining him. Dr. Lang has just been most brutally as saulted in tho street with a horsewhip, by the notorious Captain M'Donald on whose Im moral career the Doctor lately commented. The Doctor's body is lacerated with the strokes of the whip. He has applied for a warrant. At Mort's sale, yesterday, the bidding was &amp;nbsp; brisk, the supply of wool falling off. 160 bales were offered, and all sold at full rates. &amp;nbsp; There was very little really good wool. The &amp;nbsp; highest prices realised were, for 7 bales MXT, &am...

The daily numerous arrivals from Victoria will, however, soon increase that number to probably eight thousand. 3. From the most authentic information to be pro cured, ( find that a...

William Henry Drew, John Vaughan, and &amp;nbsp; William Lee, convicted on the previous day of the robbery of the Bank of New South Wales, Deniliquin, were brought up for sentence. They were asked if they had anything to say why sentence should not be passed upon them. Prisoner Drew handed in a written state &amp;nbsp; ment, purporting to be his defence. The substance of the document was that on the night of the 15th of Ootobor, when the bank was robbed, he was not away from his tent the whole night; and that Gegan had sworn falsely against him, in order to screen himself, and take revenge on him (Drew), they having had a quarrel previously about Gegan's wife, Gegan euspccting him of too great familiarity with her.

Commercial Intelligence. CHRONICLE Office, Friday evening. BUSINESS has shown a further improvement during the week, a fair trade, both wholesale and retail, having been transacted. The Circuit Court has brought many persons into town, and this has affected the retail trade favourably. There is little change in prices, though the wheat and flour market shows a downward tendency. Wheat may be quoted at about 10-., though less has been taken. Flour has also been sold by private dealers at a lower figure than that quoted by the mills. A large quantity of supplies from Sydney mills arrived this week, and a good deal is still on &amp;nbsp; the way, including a considerable quantity of fiour.

REPORT. During the week the horse market has shown no change, sellers being still in a large majority over buyers. We have sold 7 heat at from £5, 10 s. to £15. Three horses, dray, and harnass, for £70. Gig and harness for £28. Dray, £13 10s. LAND - This morning we sold at auction, a cottage and land at Towrang, to Mr. John Sinclair, for £160. Cottage in Mulwarree street, to Mr. H. Lord, for 103 guineas. We have ALSO sold privately the premises &amp;nbsp; known as the " Chronicle " office, to Messrs. Vernon and Mellin, for £ 1100, and the premises occupied bv Mr. Selkmann, to Mr. Philip Dignam, for £900, both sales being on terms equal to cash. PRODUCE.-Very little has been brought into town during the week, probably owing to the assizes oc- cupying many of the settlers and prices remain with- out alteration. P. DIGNAM &amp; CO.
